toString method

@override String toString({ String yearSuffix = '-', String monthSuffix = '-', String daySuffix = '', })

A string representation of this object.

Some classes have a default textual representation, often paired with a static parse function (like int.parse). These classes will provide the textual representation as their string representation.

Other classes have no meaningful textual representation that a program will care about. Such classes will typically override toString to provide useful information when inspecting the object, mainly for debugging or logging.

Implementation

@override
String toString(
    {String yearSuffix = '-',
    String monthSuffix = '-',
    String daySuffix = ''}) {
  String y = fourDigits(year);
  String m = twoDigits(month);
  String d = twoDigits(day);
  return "$y$yearSuffix$m$monthSuffix$d$daySuffix";
}
